Maybe I should ask @AppleSupport why they don't include a built-in calculator app on an iPad.

Deserved. We've owned Apple products for 30 years, and they're rock solid. When there are issues, customer service is outstanding.

I, too, would like to see a build-in Calculator app on the iPad. A weather app would be great, too.

Maybe you should. And maybe they'll hold back their laughter while sending your question to their junk folder.

This is well documented, snarkwad.
Well "documented"? iPhone's have a nice, native one. Who cares what is documented the point is it would be very "nice" to just have an Apple solution to such a basic thing.

I just want add that Apple Support is one of the reasons my business uses all Apple computers
But we're now nervous we'll have to move away from Apple because their computers aren't being updated, and when they are they are less upgradable.
Maybe support is easier for locked down consumer gadgets but support won't matter to me if they don't sell the products I need to buy.

Not bad, but this is expected. Apple's customer service is usually pretty good.
